Each year the federal government sells billions of dollars of surplus, seized, forfeited and exchange/sale assets. GovSales is a centralized, citizen-centered website created to make it easy for people and businesses to locate government assets for sale. It also enhances the visibility of those assets.

GovSales objectives are to:

Make it easier for citizens and businesses to find and buy government assets;

Increase agencies' net proceeds from asset sales;

Decrease agencies' expenses related to asset sales;

Accelerate asset sales time;

Leverage economies of scale and reach a broader customer base; and

Take advantage of market driven "best in class" practices and solutions.

All agencies now sell their unwanted assets using the Sales Center (SC) market-driven approach for asset sales. For more information on the GovSales initiative, please refer to the "Contacts" box.
